Open Food Facts Association - General Assembly - 2024 (view source)
Revision as of 16:55, 13 November 2024
, 13 Novemberno edit summary
==== Motion 1 ====
==== Motion 1 ====
Open Food Facts yearly budget increased significantly: 758 549€ in 2023 and the grants received in 2024 take us to a legal threshold where the accounts need to be monitored and certified by an external, independent body.
It is the role of a statutory auditor, who carries out every year a critical review of the accounts. Their mission is to ensure that the rules governing operations and funding have been complied with by the accounting department that drew up the accounts.
More information on the thresholds making the certification of the accounts by a statutory auditor mandatory:
https://www.service-public.fr/particuliers/vosdroits/F2907, namely :
*if the organization receives at least 153 000 € in public grants (excluding European grants)
*if the yearly amount of donations exceeds 153 000€ and entitling donors to a reduction in income or corporation tax.
Finally, a statutory auditor is reassuring for funding bodies - indeed a lot of them have asked us for accounts certified by a statutory auditor even if this was not mandatory yet.
We have therefore decided to propose the following motion: Open Food Facts will appoint a statutory auditor for a six-year period, starting with the 2024 accounts.
The motion voted last year could not apply due to regulatory issues: the chosen statutory auditor must be named specifically in the General Assembly minutes and the person appointed last year was not able to carry on with us.
We thus need to appoint a new statutory auditor.
The general assembly hereby appoints as statutory auditor for a duration of six financial years starting with the current financial year 2024, i.e. until the financial year ending in December 2029:
Juliette FARA, born on May, 29th 1990 in Saint-Etienne (France)
==== Motion 2 ====
We are also required to appoint an alternate statutory auditor. They will not carry out any work and will only intervene in case of default of the appointed statutory auditor.
Juliette FARA suggested the IDEXO practice, that she knows well, and we have decided to accept this suggestion.
The general assembly hereby appoints as alternate statutory auditor for a duration of six financial years starting with the current financial year 2024, i.e. until the financial year ending in December 2029:
the IDEXO practice, registered under the SIREN number 94773243, and located at 110 rue Garibaldi 69006 Lyon (France)
In case of the appointed statutory auditor being unable to fulfill their duties, the board will vote for a new auditor.
